Local bakery wins awards
A local bakery has taken out five more awards in the Great Aussie Pie Competition recently.
Bremen Patisserie in Umina entered its Italian bolognaise, oyster, kangaroo, chunky beef and plain pies in the competition to come out with medals for all five entries.
The Italian bolognaise pie achieved a gold medal, the plain pie received a silver medal while the oyster, kangaroo and chunky beef pies each won bronze medals.
Business owner Mr Ron Bruns said it was pleasing to continue to produce good-quality and great tasting pies after almost 20 years of pie-making in West St, Umina.
"We are looking forward to celebrating 20 years on the Peninsula at the end of the year with a street festival and pie-eating competition," Mr Bruns said.
"We are starting to become a Peninsula icon and it is great to see the support and interest from the local community."
Mr Bruns said he was always looking to try out new pie recipes and looks forward to selling a corned beef with creamy white sauce in the near future.
The bakery has won awards in previous years in this and other competitions.
